[Electronics-Talk] Converting VHS Tapes To DVD

[The Blind MacGyver]

Depending on how many VHS tapes you have. A VHS to DVD recorder could be a good idea. In my case I saw a deal for a company called legacy box. They converted my 8 mm films to MP4 files. I did about 30 pieces for about $300. Approximately. May be worth it instead of buying a VHS to DVD recorder because they’ll do all the work for you and just mail you a thumb drive. And afterwords you can make as many copies and give it to as many people as you possibly can. I have included a link from QVC below for 18 pieces to be converted for $200. They also have other plans. Personally I think this would be easier than trying to struggle to make your own plus the purchase of the machine. My recommendation would be if you have a description on the tape, placed their sticker on there and then take a picture of it so this way you know which film went to which sticker.

Hi:

I have been thinking for a while about converting some of my VHS tapes to
DVD.I know there are companies out there who do that but I would like to
do it myself if possible.Has anyone on this list done this?If so, what
would be the most accessible way of going about doing it?I am aware there
are RHS to DVD stand-alone units but are they accessible for blind people?

Thanks!

Dennis
